Professor Eng Hwa Yap, Founding Dean of The School of Robotics

“We live in unprecedented times. This is an era where the challenges that we face are more complex, networked, and ambiguous. As a result of rapid technological disruptions, the speed of change has never been this fast and will never be this slow again. In the future of the workforce, there is a strong demand for top technological talents with entrepreneurial mindsets. These are leaders who thrive through transdisciplinary thinking, forging strong collaborations, understanding complex problems, and creating solutions using knowledge, skills and practices unhindered by professional silos. This is a time for fundamental changes in how we approach education. Through Syntegrative Education, the School of Robotics aims to produce leaders who will push the horizon in intelligent robotics and deliver meaningful solutions. To do this, we have created a future-focused learning ecosystem. This is a resilient community of mutual learning, built together with our partners and stakeholders where we create impacts through a unique style of learning and deep engagement in research and professional practices. Join us, and see how you fit in. It will be an enriching journey of discovery for you. We look forward to engaging you!”
